MAMMA MIA! Parents of desperately sick children at Birmingham Children’s Hospital will see their youngsters get a cash boost for new treatment thanks to the music of Abba, Elvis and Kylie.

Drayton Manor Theme Park, in Tamworth, Staffordshire, is set to bring in thousands of life-saving pounds for the trust with a series of summer charity concerts.

Tracy March, hospital fundraising director, said she was delighted the Midland attraction was giving a chunk of ticket sales cash from Abba Mania, Viva Las Vegas and Kylie Mania straight to the hospital.

“The Drayton Manor Fun Day is a highlight of our fundraising year, giving families a great, affordable day out while still raising much needed funds for the hospital,” said Tracy.

“The hospital has an ambitious vision to deliver the best healing environment for children in the world, because our children deserve the best, this will only be achieved with the help of others.”

The 7pm concerts at Drayton Manor are Abba Mania, featuring a tribute band to the Swedish Eurovision winners, on August 8 and Viva Las Vegas, with Heath Ashton, winner of GMTV’s Best Elvis competition, performing some of the singer’s best hits followed by a firework display on August 9.

Visitors will also be spinning around at Kylie Mania when tribute artist Adele Rankin entertains crowds at 1pm on August 10.

Drayton Manor has been a long-time supporter of the hospital, donating more than £53,000 last year raised through a summer Family Fun Day.

Colin Bryan, the theme park’s managing director, said: “People who come to our summer concerts will not only see some amazing musical performances but they will also help support Birmingham Children’s Hospital and its dedicated staff.

“The money raised will make a big difference to many children and their families.

“Drayton Manor Theme Park has built a close relationship with the hospital over the past few years.”

Tickets for shows range between £8 and £13 for children up to the age of 11 and from £10 to £15 adults with family tickets also available from the tickeline on 0844 472 1960, or visit website: www.draytonmanorlive.co.uk
